About Me

I am a Dutch Software Engineer and just graduated for my bachelor's degree.

----
Currently travelling around and doing whatever I feel like doing ;)
----
Love new gadgets, travelling, teaching, exploring the world around me :)

Love traveling 😊 being an active Couchsurfer! I want too see the world and experience different cultures and meet lots of new friends. Maybe you will be on my path? Since the beginning of February I started travelling around the globe and dont have a fixed place which I could call "home" anymore.

The past 12 months I have travelled to South Korea, China, Malaysia, Germany Kazakhstan Austria Indonesia and the US of A.

Right now I am in Beijing if anyone wants to meet up just message me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started using couchsurfing when i was travelling around china for 2 months in 2015. Also during my stay in Beijing I have hosted some couchsurfers.

I love meeting new friends all over the world and discover the life of locals that I meet on my way. I truely believe that travelling using Couchsurfing gives a whole new inside on the culture, habbits and the people in a country. This gives a much better experience (in my opinion) than the more ordinary ways of travelling ( like using a travel agency with a guide hotel etc).

Interests

big bang theory ,squash , software development, game of thrones, gadgets
